I love this piece and it looks like it cost $3000!! I prefer it without the handles but they are definitely your style and I imagine would suit your decor better with them on. Fantastic work 👍💕
It looks more modern without the handles. The handles make it look the older style that it originally was. Personally, I’d prefer it without but it’s yours and you need to love looking at it everyday. So, do your thing Kacha and enjoy it xx
Definitely voting for adding hardware....just not sold on the bright, shiny gold. While the paint wash and pole wrap elevated the piece, the gold looks just a tad gaudy to me. Perhaps if they were antiqued/bronzed (different color)...something to mute them a bit, look more upscale.
Loved your sense of humor in this video!!Also loved the fact that the piece was finished back to its natural wood look with unique trim work!! You do beautiful pieces with stencils, but this was a very refreshing change up. I liked the dresser without the pulls, however, if you decided to add them I would use something a little more muted as the ones in the video appeared too bright on the natural looking wood.
I love this transformation !! I know it took a lot of time to take the paint off and sand but it was definitely work it !! I like it either way. It wouldn't be yours if you didn't add gold. Thanks, Kacha, for another fantastic transformation !!!
I prefer this piece in it's more simple minimalist version....without the gold pulls. The gold accent can be a gold lamp or vase or brass ornaments. Either way, it's so nice to see this gorgeous walnut wood back to it's original beauty.
Incredible transformation, Kacha! Love the pole wrap idea, instead of cutting and gluing a bunch of wooden dowels individually. I’m in LOVE with this color for the wash. Usually we see washes done it a light color (off white, beige or French linen to look like a white wash), so doing it in a darker color really made that wood grain pop. I was on the fence at first about adding the hardware, but I say keep it. I especially like this style of hardware on MCM pieces. Definitely looks like something that costs $3000.💜
Hi there Kacha, so far I've never commented on any of your videos, because it' something I simply dont like doing. But I am one of your biggest fans ever since you started being a furniture artist. I saw ALL you videos, I'm following your FB and Insta profiles, as well as your blog and over the years you've been such a huge inspiration. I'm "pimping" furniture too, unfortunately only for either personal use or now and then a piece for a good friend. I live in Germany and it would be near to impossible to do this as a fulltime job, as I would have to pay soooooo much taxes, so I just forgot about it. But still, I admire you and your pieces are all simply "perfect", without excpetion. You're so talented and seem to be a really nice and loving person. I especially love your dog, it's something we definitely have in common. So thank you for sharing your talent with all of us. Hugs from Germany and keep up the wonderful work. 💋 Danielle
Omg!! Love this piece ..I liked it without hardware...then you put that gold hardware and it matched the gold vase....but if TV is placed on top then I would say without hardware..😃
love that you change up 💗 ... Q: handle I like with or without. Without is more casual relaxed. With is smarter... if with I would refinish the gold giving a softer shine....satin.
Love, love, love this!! I prefer it without the gold hardware, as I think the wood is so pretty that I prefer to look at that. It's beautiful either way. The is the prettiest dresser I've ever seen.
I like the gold handles, I think it finishes it off nicely! What a transformation this was. It is nice that you showed you can totally change the look of a piece with a little hard work! Great job! ❤️
AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL! You made yourself an exquisite wooden piece! In my opinion, put wooden handles not gold ones. But above all, it is your furniture and you should do whatever satisfies your preferences. Thanks so much for sharing.
I love the color. You so such great and beautiful work. The dresser without the hardware is my favorite…the wood and design is so pretty. Thanks for all of your instructions . P. S. I love Your helper too. I’ve loved watching him grow. Love to you from Texas
Ur amazing,, funny and talented . Been watching your vids for years. It looks absolutely Gorgeous either way maybe you can do half year with them in half a year without them just kidding
I love the work on this piece you did. For me I like without the gold pieces. If use gold maybe another design. It's beautiful either way you do it. God bless, 💓 your great.
Most people seem to like the hardware and I agree that it's nice but I prefer it without. I feel like they stand out too much where that style of furniture suits a more minimal look. Obviously though, you do you, as you're the one that's going to look at it every day. At least with you attaching the pole wrap with nails instead of glue, it'll make it easier to remove if you want to change the look again👍.
I actually prefer it without the hardware... The effect is more subtle.. (I probably made a few enemies with that statement... 😁) Great job all the same! ❤️
It does look better without the hardware when TV on top of it, it doesn’t put too much attention to it that’s it’s actually chest of drawers, but if the option would be without tv on top of it then definitely with the hardware cuz it’s beautiful.
Beautiful dresser, I liked the humor too. The dresser looks more high end without the gold handles, I think, although if they weren’t so bright they would look better.
Wow all the time you had to put into preparation looked like hard work. It was all worth it though. It came up a treat, absolutely gorgeous as usual. Congratulations. Just a note on your hair it looks so soft and shiny. You're as beautiful as always in appearance as well as in personality. Yay the giggles are back.
